anto 1,645 Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Their only hope that the engine was high enough not to compress their bodies .Either way it will be a bad injury . Link to post Share on other sites
ratcatcher 29,616 Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 The lady in the blue clothes seemed most concerned. The 15 y.o. driver took his time getting out of the cab. Ran right over them and dragged them a few yards and drove over an arm. I wonder what the charges and punishment will be. Link to post Share on other sites

z42 14,853 Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Incredible. And what I wonder will be the justification for letting some brainless young kid drive the pickup (other than laziness on behalf of the parents). I hope the victims recover fully and quickly and seek to absolutely hammer the idiot family for damages Link to post Share on other sites

seajae 16,453 Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 here there was a 12 year old girl that used to drive herself to school, her father bragged about it and posted videos. Nothing happened, police did bugger all, any wonder Thailand is ragged by so many as being backward, when the population totally ignores all the rules/laws and the police refuse to enforce them you get what we have here every day of the week, one huge cesspit of corruption. If the police actually did their jobs and enforced the laws Thailand wouldnt be such a joke but that will never happen, backhanders and tea money are too much a part of their lives plus they are too lazy to actually do anything physical Link to post Share on other sites

jak2002003 4,997 Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Lets bet there are not punishments for the kid driver or his family. I feel so bad for the couple that got injured. I see children driving motor bikes a lot out where I live... kids that look no older than 10, with even younger children and toddlers on the back.. none with helmets on... going all over the road. Nobody does anything, because it seems nobody could give a toss about the children, or anyone else apart from themselves. Link to post Share on other sites
thenewgoo 373 Posted August 17, 2017 Share Posted August 17, 2017 Just shows you need to watch out for the traffic coming the wrong way down a street as well as the oncoming traffic. All traffic rules are optional here. Hope they are OK and the child's parent face the courts. Link to post Share on other sites
